The intelligence agency reported that due to the failure of the Russian army on the battlefield, the occupiers have begun using chemical substances.
'During the criminal war against Ukraine, the Muscovites have provided a systematic practice in this regard', the intelligence agency noted. According to the intelligence agency, there are currently increasing instances along the front line, particularly in the Zaporizhzhia region near the settlements of Shcherbaky, where the enemy is frequently recorded using munitions with poisonous gas. 'Mostly, it concerns RG-VU grenades: the Russians are targeting the positions of the Security and Defense Forces of Ukraine', the intelligence agency explained. The gas used by the Russian occupiers affects the mucous membranes and respiratory tract.
'Being in this zone without protective equipment can have fatal consequences - unfortunately, among our defenders there are already casualties. Currently, examinations are being conducted to accurately determine the chemical substance used by the Russians', the intelligence agency reported.
